Year 10 Core Information

At Perins School, KS4 students follow a well-structured curriculum designed to provide a strong academic foundation while fostering independence and critical thinking. The core subjects studied in Year 10 include English Language and Literature, Mathematics, Science (combined or separate), and core Physical Education. These subjects ensure that students develop essential skills and knowledge that will support their future studies and career aspirations.
 
In English, students refine their analytical and creative writing skills, exploring a range of literature and non-fiction texts. Mathematics focuses on problem-solving, logical reasoning, and practical applications, helping students build confidence in numerical and analytical thinking. Science covers key concepts in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, encouraging students to develop investigative skills through practical experiments and theoretical study. Alongside academic subjects, core Physical Education promotes health, well-being, and teamwork, ensuring students maintain an active lifestyle.
 
Year 10 is a crucial stage in preparing for GCSEs, and at Perins, we support students with high-quality teaching, resources, and guidance to help them succeed.
